WHAT IT DOES

What corporate_registry_lookup does on Gapup Mcp

AI agents call corporate_registry_lookup to retrieve information from Gapup Mcp without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`async`	boolean	—	If true, returns a job_id immediately (<200ms) instead of waiting for the result. Poll the result with job_result(job_id). Use for slow tools to avoid client ti
`country`	string	—	ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code (e.g. 'FR', 'GB', 'NL', 'DE', 'SG', 'AU', 'US'). If omitted, inferred from legal suffix in company name, then falls back to glob
`identifier`	string	—	Optional registry identifier for a fast direct lookup: SIREN (FR, 9 digits), Companies House number (GB, 8 chars), KvK number (NL, 8 digits), etc.
`company_name`	string	Yes	Company name or trading name to look up (e.g. 'Sanofi', 'Tesco PLC', 'Notion Labs Inc')

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
